Chapter 5: Deer Hunting (five strokes) In Li Xu's heart, Sun Jiu has long been regarded as one of his relatives. When Wang Mazi said that things could still turn around, let alone write a letter, even if he had to run away in person.
When I went to Yuyang, I immediately went out of the tent to find paper and pen, and prepared to ask the captain to rescue people. When I was full of ink, I suddenly remembered that I had never even asked the captain's name.
"The name of General Bu is only the word soldier. The little old man asked about it on the way home!" Wang Mazi was a little bit stern about what he was doing. When he saw that Li Xu was not writing when he picked up the brush, he immediately guessed that he did not remember the name of Captain Bu.
Uncle Zhang on the other side changed his expression when he heard this. If Li Xu didn't even ask the other person's name that day, the friendship must have been a casual friendship. I'm afraid Bu Xiaowei wouldn't have much free time, not to mention the tiger's sharpness.
As a cavalry captain, going to inquire about local government affairs is not something that can be considered easy at first.
Li Xu had been following Xu Dayan for so long, and he was no longer as careless as when he left the fortress that day. Seeing Uncle Zhang suddenly turned cold, knowing that he was worried about Uncle Jiu's future, he smiled, put down his pen, and lowered his head.
He took out a jade bottle from the wooden box in the corner and placed it on the table.
"I wonder if this wine glass can make the county magistrate less angry?" Li Xu asked while continuing to edit the book.
"Then, that, of course it will, of course, dissipate some of the anger!" Uncle Zhang's eyes were dazzled by the color of the jade, and he stammered in reply. He knew that Li Xu's status in Su Chuanbu was not low, but he had absolutely no
I thought that after half a year, an ignorant young man suddenly became so rich. In officialdom, there is always no grease and no turning. To send such a jade bottle up, let alone bribe the county magistrate to let Sun Jiuyima go.
It is enough for the governor to pressure the county magistrate.
"Brother Ninth is just too, too trusting in those who are, officials!" Wang Mazi swallowed and sighed. A jade bottle is enough to cost hundreds of sheep. If Brother Ninth hadn't fought against the government last year, everyone would have divided the jade bottle.
, I can go home and take care of myself in the future, now it’s great, I didn’t get back the money for the two horses, and hundreds of sheep were paid for it again!
"Uncle Wang, give me all your goods. Tomorrow morning, I will trouble you and the Xu family's two men to rush back to the Central Plains, give this letter to Bu Xiaowei, and then use this jade bottle to pack some for Uncle Jiu."
!" Li Xu put down his pen and said while blowing the ink on the paper.
He really didn't dare to trust Uncle Jiu's life-saving money in Wang Mazi's hands, but he had no one to trust at the moment, so he had to let the Xu family's associates supervise Wang Mazi's actions.
The elders already know that using the good brother as a backer to show off one's power, the guys must not dare not to obey.
This was an obvious sign of distrust. Wang Mazi immediately darkened his face, but he did not dare to do it to Li Xufa, so he had to suppress his anger and agree. Li Xu looked at the other party's face and knew that his little thoughts had been guessed.
Shaking his head, he added with a smile: "Don't worry, you will never lose money if you leave the goods to me to sell. I still have some gold and silver here. When you save Uncle Jiu from trouble, I will definitely thank you for your benefit!"
"
After saying that, he casually opened the lid of his gold and silver storage box, revealing half a box of yellow and white things.
"You should do your best for Ninth Brother. You are still young. You should save this money and say, say, wife!" Wang Mazi's throat moved desperately, and he could no longer form a sentence. The gem in the box
, Jin Yu casually took out a few pieces, which were enough for him to have enough food and clothing for half his life. Since Li Xu promised to share the accounts with everyone today, in the future, in front of Sun Jiu, even if he regrets it, he will use part of it to make up for the story.
One or two treasures, who would go all the way to endure all the hardships to find a place in a big city and live in a popular and popular place for the rest of their lives...
Li Xu took out a few more pieces of silverware and gave them to Wang Mazi as a favor on the road. Uncle Mazi was so happy that he completely forgot about the offence. After finalizing all the details, Wang Mazi put away the letter and
He raised his hand and pulled the two young men in front of Li Xu.
"This, these are the dogs of Lao Zhang and Xiao Lao'er. Your two nephews, if you want to beg for food on the plug, please take care of me, Mr. Li!" Wang Mazi said while cupping his hands to Li Xu.
explained
"I've met Uncle Li!" Two young men who were several years older than Li Xu immediately bowed down and shouted, one for Uncle Li, with great affection.
Li Xu had long noticed the two young men following Wang Mazi. He had always thought that they were Uncle Zhang and Wang Mazi's hired men. Suddenly they were one generation older than the other. He was caught off guard and quickly stepped aside, reaching out to help him.
The other party dare not even say that
Seeing Li Xu's embarrassed look, Uncle Zhang immediately stepped forward and begged for fear that he would not take him in: "Li, Mr. Li, I know I can't help you, but I'm just such a son. I can't just watch him being raped by the government."
Just take them to Liaodong and let them follow you to eat and drink!" After saying that, he picked up his clothes and was about to bow down.
Seeing Zhang San's desolate words, Wang Mazi also rushed forward and knelt down to worship Li Xu. He couldn't stop the other one, so he had to bite the bullet and agree to the matter. Now he is considered a small rich man, and it doesn't cost him to support two idle people.
What kind of strength is there? Besides, with these two young people here, Uncle Mazi will work even harder for Uncle Jiu.
"I have said it before, Xuzi, no, Mr. Li is a kind man!" Seeing that Li Xu agreed to keep his son, Wang Mazi said with a smile why Li Xu left his books instead of reading and went out to engage in a lowly career.
Uncle Zhang and I have already made a clear guess. This year, the frontier counties have begun recruiting troops. It is indeed the best choice for small families to send their children to escape outside the fortress. Besides, my son is far smarter than Li Xu. He can become famous in half a year, and I
In a few years, my son will eventually become a rich man.
"Quinzi is ignorant, please take care of Mr. Li. You are their elder. You should deal with them when you need to deal with them. Don't be lenient!" Uncle Zhang has seen more of the world than Wang Mazi, and his words are more organized.
Li Xu knew that he was being relied upon, so he had to smile and accept the matter of taking care of the two young people. The five of them chatted thoughtfully, and Ayun came in again to make tea. Zhang San and Wang Mazi glared at each other.
After saying hello, he stood up and said: "It's getting late, we can't disturb the adults' rest anymore, go back, we will be busy with Brother Ninth tomorrow!"
"Tomorrow morning, I will prepare a fast horse for Uncle Mazi!" Li Xu stood up and yawned in response to the conversation that lasted less than half an hour. It actually made him feel more exhausted than a fierce battle.
When only Ayun and him were left in the felt bag, the feeling of powerlessness surged into his heart again from his limbs. "The government is not that bad!" This was what Uncle Jiu had sworn to him half a year ago. At that time, the old man was still
Advise him not to stay outside the Great Wall, and to return to the Central Plains as soon as possible after the news of conscription has passed. But now, Wang Mazi and Zhang San's descendants have also fled outside the Great Wall. It is obvious that they will not be able to return to their home in the Central Plains in the near future. And Su Chuobu..., think about that day
When Su Chufuli cut the captive's throat and bled it out, the pores all over Li Xu's body began to tighten.
"Master, do you want to rest?" Ayun moved the brazier towards Li Xu's feet and asked timidly. The young man in front of her was not as scary as the legend. In some ways, he was even gentler than the men on the grassland.
, after experiencing a storm last night, she clearly understood this, but the other party is her master after all. No matter how gentle the master is when he is angry, the damage to the slave is definitely no less than a snowstorm.
"Sleep! I'll find someone to buy you a felt bag tomorrow!" Li Xu agreed absentmindedly, and fell down on the felt. His chest was hit hard, and then he remembered that there was another letter from home that he had not yet read.
Pulling out the letter paper under the dim butter lamp, he saw his father's blunt and kind handwriting. This kind of family letter has always been a message of peace and prosperity. Even if his father and mother encountered any danger, they would never say it to let the family thousands of miles away.
The son's worry occasionally showed a hint of longing, but it was quickly diluted by words of encouragement asking him to read as much as possible in his free time. However, both his father and mother were very concerned about Sun Jiu's experience, and repeatedly warned Li Xu if
We must try our best to do whatever we can
"I will definitely go back as soon as possible!" Covering the letter on his chest, Li Xu silently thought that the night was already deep and every limb of his body was sore, but he could not fall asleep as soon as possible. The savage and ignorant Su Chuobu had a deep affection for him.
Tao Kuo took off his clothes, and the warm but unable to return home overlapped, making him toss and turn.
Ayun lay quietly by the charcoal basin, listening to the heavy breathing of the young man not far away. This man was a noble man of the Suchu tribe. Except for the clan leader and a few elders, there was almost no man in the whole tribe whose status was more noble than his.
This made Ayun, a first-time slave, feel somewhat at ease. According to Xi Bu's life experience, a slave following a strong master is far safer than a slave following a weak master, so she no longer has to worry about her life in a short period of time.
But he is too young. He is so young that he cannot predict the storms that may happen in front of him. If he is not reminded, he will inevitably be implicated in a lot of things in the future.
Ah Yun, who has become a slave, does not expect to regain her former status. She only expects to live peacefully and forget about the killing that day and everything that happened in the past.
"Ayun, are you asleep?" Suddenly, Li Xu, who was lying on the blanket, asked in a low voice.
"Sleep, no, not asleep!" Ayun's body immediately stiffened, and she answered in a trembling voice that the kind-hearted Mrs. Wanqing had given her a task. At the same time, she also gave her a chance to change her identity if the master needed it...
….
Ayun felt that the brazier suddenly became hot, and the blood all over her body was burning. She knew what she was looking forward to, and she didn't want to hide any desire in her body.
"You, do you hate me for rushing into your tribe?" On the carpet, there was the sound of Li Xu turning over, and he asked quietly
"Hate?" Ayun was stunned, and her enthusiasm immediately disappeared. No one had ever asked her such a question. The slave iron ring around her neck had deprived her of the right to hate. From the moment she put on the iron ring, she had
Be willing to accept the fate given to you by the immortal god
Do you hate it? In the nightmare memories of parents, brothers, sisters, and countless tribesmen who fell in pools of blood and fire, a man with a scimitar slashed the tribe leader under his horse.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you?" The voice coming from the carpet sounded a bit pleading, as if expecting an answer.
"This is the rule on the grassland, noble Lord Fu Li!" Ayun wiped the blood from her lips and replied very seasonedly.
